AY 17, 1943 THE MIGHIGAN DAILY Nine Sweeps Twin Bill; Netters R., 40 elinquish Ti tle Boim, Fishman Both Allow-Only Seven:Hits; Purple Captures Tennis Crown By One Point P P Bud Chamberlain Stars For Wolverines With Slugging, Fielding; Varsity Meets Chicago Tomorrow In Double Header (Continued from Page 1) in both contests, they failed to come through in the pinches with the result that they had eight men left on bases in each game. Illinois tallied their only run of the day in the sixth inning of the second game when Liz Astroth, play- ing his last game for the Orange and Blue, hit one of Fishman's fast balls for a single to right with Bart- *Stillc, Schaflander, Gamon Take Singles Matches To Give Michigan 14 Points And Second Place Tie With Maroons (Continued from Page 1) tained his number two title against the heavily favored Bobby Jake who literally clowned himself out of the championship. Favored however, the Maroons did not stop at that and handed the Wolverines a defeat in the one doubles where a win could have given them a tie for first. Co-Captain Stille played the best tennis of his career in both singles and doubles this weekend and today; climaxed it by completely outplaying Northwestern's ley on second. In the second inning of the open scored their first runs of the after- noon when they combined three hits with some clever base running. After Chamberlain had grounded out, Bob Stenberg got the first hit of the game by beating out a ground ball to deep short. Then Paul White slapped a hard single to left that sent the speedy Stenberg to third. When the Illini right fielder allowed himself to be upset by Stenberg's jockeying, he threw wild and permitted Stenberg to score and White to reach second. Bill Cartmill, next up, took two pit- ches before socking a single that pushed White across for the second run of the inning and of the ball game. Varsity Scores Again Michigan waited until the eighth inning to pick up their other run of the ball game. In that frame the Varsity took advantage of the Illini's warm hospitality when they scored without the aid of a hit. Robinson, first up, worked Bob Roth, new Illini pitcher, for a walk and then promptly stole second. After Chamberlain had pushed the Wolver- ine shortstop over to third on a ground ball, Robinson came home when Stenberg hit to short. This made the score read 3-0. The Wolverines won't be able to take much of a well-deserved rest because they must leave for Chica- go tonight where they will face the Maroons in a double header Mon- day.

Yester- day four collegiate matches were held on the spacious. fairways of the Uni- versity course-Michigan vs. Illinois, Minnesota vs. Wisconsin, Michigan State vs. Northwestern and Michigan State vs. Indiaha. The Spartans. played one in the morning, the other in the afternoon. The main reason for the influx of Big Ten linksmen into Ann Arbor is, of course, the holding of the West- ern Conference Meet here tomorrow and Tuesday. So it is that five Con- ference teams besides Michigan tuned up over the site of this Big Ten golfing classic yesterday. The rest, are due in town today for a practice round, that is, all except Iowa are expected. Then at 9 a.m. tomorrow, 45 golfers will take their place at the1 first tee and the battle will be on. Illinois will be defending the title it won a year ago, with Ohio State a slight favorite to replace the Illini as Conference champs. The Wolverines and the Wildcats will give the Buckeyes a tough fight be- fore it's over, though, and playing on their home course, it won't be a major surprise to anybody if Coach Ray Courtright's Michigan; men grab the crown and glory that goes with it. TUST WHO will emerge as indi- vidual Conference champ is some- thing that can't be answered or guessed. There are too many good golfers in the field, and too many others who can fire hot rounds for two days running to edge men who i are consistently better than they. 1 But the Conference links king should come from one of the follow-1 ing-Michigan's Ben Smith, North-< western's Dick Haskell and Johnny1 Stoltz, Illinois' Johnny Holmstromt and Ohio State's Billy Gilbert. Smith, is generally recognized as the class of the Conference, but he still is troubled by that injured shoulder. He is playing over his own course, however, and that should give him a small advantage. Two years ago Gil- bert placed in the National Colle- giates, but he has never been able to beat the Wolverine pacesetter. The two Wildcats, Haskell and Stoltz, are two lads who can shoot sub-par golf but not too often. Holmstrom fell apart yesterday, but he will doubt- less regain his form in the big tour- nament.? /)RIFTWOOI ANI) SPLINTERS: No announcement concerning the status of Fritz Crisler was fort h - coming from yesterday's Regents' meeting . .. which may be taken as; an indication that the good Master Fritz will remain here at least until the physical hardening program is organized and underway . one prominent University official claimed that he believed Fritz was needed too much here to take a post as football coach at the Great Lakes Naval Training Station ... and that seems to be the prevalent view .

Stille took the first set ery decisively, 6-0, so decisively, in act that Hall never once headed euce. The second set went to Hall, -5, as he picked up his game and title relaxed slightly but the Duke nded all doubles as the better play- r when he came back to power his ay to victory in the third, 6-3. Schaflander Stars Gerry Schaflander was the only ouble winner in the tournament nd likewise outclassed the other men a his bracket more than any other ndividual winner did. Gerry never nce let up in his three matches and oday won his title by handily de- eating Lothrop of Illinois, 6-2, 6-2. Tom Gamon, winner at number yve, set a Michigan record as he be- ame the first Michigan man in his- >ry to win an individual title two ears in a row. Gamon, reliable as Iways, used his strong forehand to >rce his opponent, Jim Clapper (Ill.) nto errors and to win many points n placements. Wolverines Miss On Doubles Michigan had thought it would eed eight points in the doubles but , turned out that they only needed x. The Wolverines never got six, owever, as the Chicago and North- estern duos won the one and two rackets from the Wolverines. The two doubles match with the ildcats was one of the two most nportant matches in the whole meet :om the Wolverine standpoint for it neant that the winner would pick p two vital points. The story of the hatch is that old, old one of one eam being hot and the other below ar. For Northwestern, Bob Good- ind, a fizzle in the singles, proved 1most flawless in this match and ith Harry Hall combined to down orter and Gamon, 6-4, 6-3. The expected victory in the one oubles could still have given Michi- an a tie but Sawyier-Michel made ie most of the Wolverine misplays win, 1-5, 0-6, 6-2. The three doubles was merely a >ntinuation of the good Michigan lay and Schaflander-Johnson wad- d through the Illinois duo, 6-2, 8-6, win the bracket title. Unfortun- tely, however, the victory only gave he Wolverines one point and left hem one point behind Northwestern. Varsity Links Team Swamps Illini, 21 22 Courtright And Smith Pace Wolverines To Easy Win Over Weak Foes By BUD LOW Preparing for the Western Con- ference Golf Meet here in Ann Arbor on tomorrow and Tuesday, the Wol- verine linksmen trounced Illinois' de- fending champions by a score of 21 /2 to 21%/ on the home course yesterday. Leading Michigan back on the win trail again were juniors Bill Court- right and Ben Smith, who teamed to- gether in the morning best ball con- tests to gain 212 points for the Var- sity cause, and then came back in the singles tilts to score victories over their hapless Illini opponents. Courtright continued his brilliant play of late by carding the low medal score of the day, a 73, to down John- ny Hayes by a count of 3 to 0. The Orange and Blue ace shot a 75, but it was not quite good enough as Bill scored birdies on the last two holes to come home with a par for the back nine and one over for the eighteen hole round. Smith Makes Comeback Ben Smith, playing against John Holmstrom in the number one spot, made a magnificent comeback after his poor round in the morning. The Wolverine star carded a 39 on the first nine when his putting was de- cidedly off, but he blasted back on the final nine with a one under par 35 for a 74 total. Smith took five holes in a row from Holmstrom, the man who tied him for third in the Conference meet last year, to win six up. In losing 3 to 0, the Illinois cap- tain had a high 81. Captain John Leidy also contribu- ted his bit to the cause when he scored a 77 to beat Ross Read, who tallied an 84, 3 to 0. Leidy was out in 41, and then he too started rolling as he shot a par 36 coming home. Simonds Cards 76 In the only morning singles match, Chan Simonds carded a 76 in taking a 22-1/2 victory over Jim McCarthy who shot a 78. Simonds' 76 was the best score tallied in the forenoon, and was very good considering that cold weather and high winds prevailed. Again in the afternoon, McCarthy met defeat, this time at the hands of senior Dave Osler who tallied 2 /2 points for the Maize and Blue when he shot a 78 to his opponent's 80. BorFife was given a chance to win his letter for the second year when he replaced Simonds in the lineup. Although "Hollywood Bob" still continued to be off form, he was good enough to beat Frank Jaronik, 3 to 0. Fife had an 82 while the Orange and Blue ace had an 86. Courtright, Smith Win In the first of the best ball matches, Courtright and Smith com- bined to down the Illinois duo of Holmstrom.and Jaronik, 21/2-%. Al- though Smith had an 82 and Court- right an 81, each man seemed to do well on the hole that the other did poorly and as a result the Maize and Blue twosome was victorious despite the fact that Holmstrom carded a 78. SUMMARIES Best Ball: Smith and Courtright defeated Holmstrom and Jaronik, 212-1; Leidy and Osler defeated Hayes and Reed, 2/2-. Singles: Smith 74, defeated Holm strom 81, 21-}; Courtright 73, de- feated Hayes 75, 3-0; Leidy 77, de feated Reed 84, 3-0: Osler 78, defeat- ed McCarthy 80, 2-z/2; Fife 82, de feated Jaronik 86; Simonds 7, de- fcated McCarthy 78, 22-z. Ohio State Cops First Outdoor TrackTitle, Michigan Is Sixth (Continued from Page 1) considered an upset, but the Ohioan came through again, He passed Ufer 45 yards from the finish line to fin- ally finish five yards ahead of the Wolverine ace. The winning time didn't come near the record of past time of either runner. Michigans' only other threat to a Big Ten title was Dave Matthews who finished in third place in the 880 yard run. Coming up fast in the last 100 yards, Campbell Kane, Indiana's sen- sational runner, passed Bob Rehberg of Illinois, the early leader, and Mat- thews to win the title in 1:51.3. Michigan's mile relay team fin- ished in third place behind the Buck- eyes and Indiana. The winning time was 3:19.9. Frank McCarthy took fourth in the 120 yard high hurdles despite a sore leg. Ernie Leonardi, fourth in the two mile run, George Ostroot, fifth in the discus, and Al Thomas, third in the 220 yard low hurdles, com- pleted Michigan's winning in the meet. Captain Ralph Hammond proved to be the star of the title winning Buckeye team with two individual wins and running a leg of the vic- torious mile relay. He took the 100 yard dash, running the century in 10 flat. He also won the 220 yard dash in :21.5. Hammond's teammate Bob Wright, however, can also claim some of these honors for he took two firsts and a third place in the runnings. He won both the high and low hurdles and fininshed the.century in third place. Minnesota scored 241/2 points for fourth place and Wisconsin piled up only 20 to outpoint the Wolverines for fifth, Jack Defield of Minnesota and Bill Williams of Wisconsin tied for first in the pole vault for the sixth time this season with a jump of 13 feet 6 inches.

Rule Changes Permit Early, Grid Practice EVANSTON, Ill., May 16.--(P)- The Big Ten faculty committee re- laxed conference rules today to per- mit earlier football practice this year, and to extend the eligibility of the player who suffers an injury im- mediately after a season has started. The old rule prohibiting football practice prior to Sept. 10 was waived for 1942, the committee deciding that a school may start such prac- tice three weeks before its first game, or on the opening day of school, pro- vided no practice was held before Sept. 1. Giving consideration to the player who heretofore has lost a year of his eligibility by even momentary participation in a given season, the committee adopted an amendment providing that any student injured in his first game of the season, or injured in practice preparatory to his second game will be considered as not having played at all that season.
